Gearing?

You have less acceleration, and also it seems too much for city jams, you have to use the clutch too much. Also the same teeth-same link ratio fitting a 14 is better than standard, and 230 km/h top speed is plenty for me, I do not want to go to jail.

ah I see, town riding even with my fat body is absolutely fine and the bike will do a relaxed 100 mph anytime. It's still nippy. Thing is, I am fortunate, that I have a need for speed, but for times such as that I use my Blackbird which is lightly tweaked, and regualarly see 180mph+ on that even on the A roads in the right places, so acceleration isn't important for me on the commuter bike that the Fazer is. She is still capable of minging wheelies, and controllable, as my licence will show, and the Police video. Just a big 50 year old kid me.

All right, but if Iget caught faster than 200km/h at a Spanish A-road I go to jail, I do it many times, but it is less tempting this way. On the other hand we have lots of high mountains around here, so the short gearing is a better option.
By the way, which is your top speed with the FZS?
